+## Installing on recipe/cms < 4.11
+
+The 4.9 and 4.10 releases of `recipe/cms` support both versions `3` and `4.0.0-alpha` versions of this module. Using the alpha (or beta) releases requires aliasing the module.
+
+```
+$ composer require silverstripe/graphql "4.0.0-alpha3 as 3.6.0" -W
+```
+
+**Note*: Update `alpha3` to whatever the latest alpha or beta release is, e.g. `alpha4` or `beta2`.
